"Create your own Valorant team" - Riot Games announces collaboration with Hackathon and AWS

However, this time the company teamed up with Hackathon, allowing participants to try their hand at creating their own team.

What is Hackathon?

First, let's clarify what Hackathon is for those readers who may not be familiar with the concept. A Hackathon is an event where software development professionals come together to solve various problems and challenges. Although this doesn't seem directly related to Valorant, Riot Games found a way to create an intriguing collaboration.

Create Your Own Team

Yesterday, the official VALORANT Champions Tour account posted a message where company representatives invited players to take on the role of a team manager. To participate, you need to follow the link provided and create a digital assistant based on Amazon Bedrock.

After that, you will need to fully immerse yourself in the role of a team manager, answering various questions about the players and filling out information. All the instructions can be found on the same website.

Prizes

Although at first glance, this seems like a simple collaboration, Riot is offering participants valuable prizes. For the top places, you can win large cash prizes ranging from $10,000 to $500, as well as the same amounts in Amazon Web Services credits. Additionally, participants can earn a virtual meeting with Riot and AWS executives, tickets to Valorant Champions 2025, and many other valuable rewards. The full list is available below.

Such collaborations once again highlight Riot Games' commitment to its community.
